PMQs - Prime Minister's Questions TimeHave you ever watched Prime Minister's Questions? Every Wednesday at 12:00 on BBC2, all the nation's MPs gather together to go "rrrrreeeeeeeerrrrr". Why? Is this a good thing? Let's watch a video all about it.

BREXIT - Ian Blackford ‘brutally’ takes down Theresa MayIan Blackford was speaking in the House of Commons this morning when he said: “What is absolutely shocking is that Scotland is not once mentioned in the document. Not once have the unique characters of Scotland’s devolved settlement been worthy of mention. And yet, 100 mentions of Northern Ireland, mentions of Gibraltar, of Cyprus, of the Isle of Man - but no reference to Scotland.

Scottish National Party walk out of Commons in protestThe SNP have walked out of the House of Commons in protest at their leader in Westminster, Ian Blackford being ordered to leave Prime Minister’s Questions.

David Cameron vs Jeremy Corbyn: PMQs 9 Mar 2016Watch David Cameron field questions from the House of Commons during Prime Minister's Questions. Watch it live here.

Best of Prime Minister's Questions (PMQS) - 2015The Best and Funniest moments of Prime Ministers Question Time in the UK House of Commons this year (2015).

Before you ask I'm not a Conservative supporter, the only reason David Cameron appears the most is because he made the most gags. Jeremy Corbyn and Ed Miliband rarely make/made any.

#1: Ed Miliband was ripped in the general election campaign for inviting press into his kitchen, however it was later revealed that it was the smaller/second kitchen he showed them. David Cameron was trying to make him appear out of touch.

#2: Ed Miliband ran against his brother David Miliband for the Labour Party leadership in 2010, some commentators considered it a stab in the back. David Cameron made the comparison between him and Richard III.

#3: Douglas Carswell MP (Clacton - UKIP) is the only UKIP MP in the House of Commons, despite them receiving 4 million votes. He doesn't get on well with his leader Nigel Farage and David Cameron is referring to the argument over UKIP's entitled parliamentary "short-money".

#4: Harriet Harman (then Acting Labour Party Leader after the resignation of Ed Miliband after losing the 2015 General Election) whipped her party to abstain on restricting Child Benefit to two children. Conservative backbenchers made gestures at her to switch sides as this was considered a right wing move.

#6: The House of Lords voted against the Government scrapping Tax Credits so David Cameron accused the Labour Party of relying on the unelected chamber.

#7: Tim Farron is the new leader of the Liberal Democrats, the party got obliterated at the general election and only have 8 MP's now. It seems only one of his backbenchers bothered to show up to PMQS.

#8: The Prime minister wrote to Tory-run Oxfordshire county council expressing disappointment over cuts to services as he is an Oxfordshire MP. This seemed pretty ironic and hypocritical.

#9: Momentum is a new grassroots group linked to the Labour party aimed at supporting the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn. Very few Labour backbenchers support the group and Osborne cracked a pun about them.

#10: See Reference 3.
